The latest reports from section eight,
1896, are TO the effect that soft blue
ore has been struck that promises to
come within the Bessemer limit. The
members OF the Crescent Mining Co., who
were up here several days ago and visited
that property, went back well satisfied
with the out-look.-D. G. McKinnon's
exploration on the southwest quarter

DIR. Kimball's explorations on the
northeast quarter OF the northeast
quarter of section twenty-nine, 1882, on
the town site, show signs OF developing a
good property. Test pitting has been
carried To the south side OF main street
and in a pit not more than six feet deep
some beautiful samples OF specular ore
were thrown out. The ore is not, how
evet, in place, put from it's character and

great distance, and is supposed TO be
close at hand. Exploring will be vigor-
ously prosecuted and il the ore body lies

depth, will be unearthed.
Ore OF splendid quality has been found
in fifty foot shaft Mt the South Masto-

Electric sand Fountains.

Dry as is this section the electric
sand-mounds or fountains are seldom
seen here. Arabia under the dry 81.
moon is the natural home of the elec-
trio mound, but sometimes a dry
south wind generates enough cleo
tricity by friction with the ground to
give US chance to witness the strange
not to say startling phenomenon As
an investigation by trained specialist
would not serve any practical purpose,
and as the mounds are of so irregular
occurrence it is doubtful whether any
scientific man has ever seen one and
studied it enough to explain the singu-
lar action of the electricity. All that
Is known or surmised is that after
great quantity of the fluid has been
generated by friction of the air on the
dry sand, it gathers around centrrs or
poles and appears TO contine its action
to very small area. The particles of
sand over this space are repealed from
each other as are all bodies charged
with similar electricity, and this re-
pulsion throwing them into the air,
for time, until the charges they con-
tain are dissipited, soon raises a
mound with fountain of sand in its
center The Indians are superstiously
afraid of the mounds and cannot be
persuaded to go near one of them
There Is no real danger however un.
less they are approached too quickly
when before the person approaching
becomes charged with sufficient cleo
tricity to establish an equilibrium a
shower of sand may strike the face
and do some injury to the eyes. At
night those who have seen them say
they are like beautiful fountains of
blue light, the tiny sparks from the
myriads of meeting grains Of sand
creating pyrotechuc effect that, while
IL may De alarming 10 The ignorant, Is
really magnificent, The slightest
moisture in The air destroys the foun-
tain by carrying of the cause, and the
sand OF the mound is so loosely piled
that the first wind scatters it and
within few days nothing is left but
very slight rounding elevation.
One was seen last week near the big
wash, but moist wind came so soon
that none but u few prospectors on
their road to Hawthorne district had
a chance 10 look at it. Ii notice could
be given OF the next performance a
big crowd would 90 out to see the
show.

The White Robins.

Seldom seen and much more timid
than the common red breast are white
robins. They are beautiful birds and
their rarity puts their value almost
beyond price to collectors. A PAIR OF
these handsome songslers took up
their quarters for the Sur er near
CoryvilIe and anxiety to capture
them kept several members of the
Circus Company awake at nights.
They were often seen around town
and great care was taken that they
should not be injured or frightened.

task of taking the birds and their eff

Cory is now III town. He has made a

is evidently well pleased with its con.

as to the best method OF reducing the
ore is not yet settled but 1t is probable
that concentrators will be put up at
Coryvile and that the mill will be
used for subsequent operations. There
is chance that reduction works may
be erected at or near Hawthorne where
outside ores may be worked in con.
nee lion with the Cory output. Such
works would without doubt be profit

titles if here was water at hand with
which to wash 1t out. Hundreds of
prospectors have expressed Il wish
to be able to turn the stream from a
giant nozzle on some of,lhe hills and
the time will doubtless come when
they will see the water at work. From
the district to Mono Lake the distance
is bat little over thirty miles, and a
line of pipe could be easily laid. The
supply of water would be ineXhausti-
bic and could any company secure
enough ground To justify the outlay
for the pipe hydraulic working would

sections in California where the
ground that is worked in this manner
is so rich as is that of our y district

Reduction Works.

There should be reduction works
near Hawthorne. The necessity is
getting more apparent every day.
While silver ores, free and base, can
be sent off and sampled satisfactorily,
they could be worked equally well
here, the returRs would be as good and
the cost of transportation and the time
would be reduced.
Gold bearing rock, however, can not
be sampled or tested fairly, except by
actual reduction of the entire lot
Everybody who has ever handled gold
ores knows the impossibility of either
assortment or satisfactory sampling.
The metal is not evenly distributed
through the rock and any assay taken
is at best but guess at the average
value. All gold miners of experience
would rather rely on the horn or pan
than on an assay, and when their rock
is sent off to distant mill they are un.
certain as to the result as they know
the unreliabiliy of assay samples even
when the greatest care is taken, to be
correct, No company can be expected
10 allow the chances to run against it
in dealing with customers, and the re-
suit is that shipment CT gold rock, to
distant works where the lot can not be
worked separately, is almost a certain
loss to the shipper. II is throwing
money away, which money could be
saved, were mill In the neigh borhood
